It ain't *just* me, bud. You better get used to it and i will
tell you how to keep from getting bothered: Stay OUT of
the 10 Meter band without license and you will never hear from the hams.
It's a win-win situation; you don't
steal frequencies from the hams, and the hams don't listen
for the drivers to operate on 10 Meters. OH, we already
KNOW what "channels" to look for. Tan-fer thar???
Oh My Oh My Oh My! an imaginary "army" of
wannabe hams with no life, patrolling the nation's
interstates 24/7 ! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I bet 25 Million owners of CB radios are just shaking in fear
at this self-appointed army of wannabe hams! Post some
of your fake "enforcement" letters for us.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

ENFORCEMENT: AMATEUR AUXILIARY ASKED TO ASSIST FCC IN 10 METER CLEAN-UP
Back on Mother Earth, the FCC has asked the assistance of the ARRL' s
Amateur Auxiliary as part of a clean-up of illegal users of the 10 meter
band. In a memorandum issued on April 28th, FCC Special Counsel Riley
Hollingsworth, K4ZDH, asks the Auxiliary's help for the next 6 months in
identifying any unlicensed operation using the 10 meter Amateur spectrum.
From May through October Auxiliary members will be tasked with monitoring
the band to determine whether interlopers are domestic business entities.
This includes trucking companies, truckers or other individuals who are not
licensed to be in the band or simply not licensed at all.
The FCC is not requesting that Auxiliary members provide direction finding.
Hollingsworth does ask that where possible that Auxiliary members provide
the names and cities of the operators, and license plate numbers and state
if the interfering signal is coming from a vehicle.
The project has been assigned case number 2003-583 and Hollingsworth does
ask Auxiliary members to use their best judgment as to whether to include
tape recordings of what they monitor. Authority to use the ham radio
volunteers in this investigation comes under the terms of long standing
agreement between the FCC's Field Operations Bureau and the American Radio
Relay League. (FCC)

This is 3 at once:
NEWINGTON, CT, Jul 28, 2003--The FCC Enforcement Bureau has sent Warning
Notice letters to three highway transportation firms asserting that drivers
of some of their vehicles may have transmitted without a license on 10
meters. All three notices allege the unlicensed operations took place July 8
on Interstate highways in South Carolina.
Letters went out July 14 from FCC Special Counsel Riley Hollingsworth to
Jolly Roger Capital Ltd of Columbia, South Carolina, Tidewater Transit
Company of Kinston, North Carolina, and Shuford Lumber of Marion, North
Carolina. He warned all three firms that operation of radio transmitting
equipment without a license could lead to fines of up to $10,000, equipment
seizure and even imprisonment.
Hollingsworth cited "information before the Commission" that spelled out
each vehicle's highway location, license plate and--in two
instances--operating frequency (28.085 MHz). One of the Warning Notice
letters also identified the make and year of the vehicle. The alleged
offenses were said to have occurred when the vehicles were under way on
Interstate 77 or Interstate 20 in South Carolina.
Hollingsworth asked all three firms to get in touch with him to discuss the
allegations.

There are plenty more! They can be found at:
www.arrl.org . In the yellow border at the top, click
on "ARRL News/Bulletins". Scroll down to "FCC Enforcement". You will have
to go thru the dates to find them. These notices appear at an irregular
interval, but can also be found there under "ARRL Letter" published each
Friday. Sometimes, they also are on
www.arnewsline.com. and
www.rainreport.com. which
is published every two weeks.
This push to end the incursions into bands by illegals is
REAL and it's not going to stop. Yell at me all you like,
I didn't start it. It was started when people decided that
they could just do anyway they like. It isn't only the US
hams that are upset, it is caused by complaints by OTHER countries who also
are assigned 10/12 Meters
by treaty. From what I am hearing, it is not going to just
go away. The busts are increasing--including those against "freebanders"
(there IS no such thing), and if it
isn't curtailed, there are studies going on right now with
FCC to best deal with it
This is just the first shots over the bows.
Cheers,
J
